	There's no need to do programming to load the zone; you can
download the file directly and import it:

wget http://www.stearns.org/sa-blacklist/sa-blacklist.current.domains
mysql -u {username} -p
{enter password}
create database sabldomains;
use sabldomains;
create table domains ( domain varchar(255) );
load data local infile 'sa-blacklist.current.domains' into table domains;
alter table domains add column id int(11) not null auto_increment primary key first;

	You can add other columns like the above.

select * from domains order by id desc limit 20;

	To see some sample entries in the database.

	My entire knowledge of mysql - and sql in general - was completely
exhausted before I'd even finished typing the mysql command line.  :-)  
Many thanks to Marion Bates, our resident php / os/x / mysql guru for the
above instructions.  Please contact her directly if you have questions
about the above.
	Cheers,
	- Bill
